Indian companies are leading the pack in the region for hiring international workers to work remotely as they look to transition towards a more efficient way of working, which includes a combination of working from office and remotely, a survey report from the workforce management firm Remote has revealed.
According to the report, about 50% of small and medium businesses (SMBs), along with mid-market companies in India, plan to hire 40-60% of full-time employees or contractors in the next 12 months. In contrast, Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore are planning to hire only 20-30% of remote full-time employees or contractors.
